GOL DE LETRA INAUGURATES A NEW TENNIS COURT FOR KIDS

After months of work, an area exclusively dedicated to tennis activities was built as part of the program “Jogo Aberto” which aims at promoting social inclusion of disadvantaged children. Thus was born the short René Lacoste inaugurated on August 21 in Brazil in the presence of Béryl Lacoste, president of our Foundation. The little girl of René Lacoste was very proud that the name of her grandfather was chosen for this new space where the children will be able to meet to practice the tennis in the best conditions!
